A question regarding diatomaceous earth

Hello everyone. I started my plants outside and noticed some webworms on the seedlings. I realize I could have avoided the problem had I started the seeds inside but hindsight is 20/20. These webworms are VERY small, I see the web and locate the pest that way. My question is: Will diatomaceous earth hurt forming leaves on the plant by interfering with respiration? I managed to get some on the plants and am wondering if I should be attempting to get all of it off or just a majority and leave a light dusting on the plant.
